Fiery Temper

BOOM!

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Cracks appeared simultaneously in the three walls. It was unclear what kind of attack it had used.

All that was known was that in the next second...

The three walls shattered at the same time!

BANG!

This time, it finally broke through!

THUMP--

Just as it prepared to charge out, it slammed directly into an invisible wall.

"Protective Barrier (LV: 201)"

Although it was called a Protective Barrier...

It could also be projected outwards.

After all, it had originally evolved from "Hardened Barrier," and all versions of the skill were compatible.

Just like how Lu Cang could use both Ice Shuttle and Ice Cone.

It broke through the Heavy Wall only to hit the barrier.

Before it could even shatter the barrier, the three Heavy Walls rose once more.

"Human! Are you ever going to stop!"

It was quite intelligent.

It knew that if it broke through the three Heavy Walls simultaneously, it might not have enough time to reinforce them.

But in reality, it had misunderstood.

Its magic was Triple Casting, completed simultaneously.

It could still reinforce them even if it wanted to.

However, Lu Cang intended to use this opportunity to observe its condition.

This way, he could understand why it was so durable.

He took a look and roughly understood.

Its body was composed of blood, and it was continuously drawing in more blood. Blood surged from beneath the throne, pouring into its body.

Every attack he launched...

Also consumed its blood.

So, did it have any weaknesses?

Lu Cang's gaze swept into the distance...

Forget it, he'd destroy this room piece by piece first.

First, the altar.

Lu Cang's Earthfire no longer attacked the BOSS directly, but erupted in the center of the arena instead!

BOOM!

Molten lava spewed!

Giant spikes grew!

Sharp stones rained down from the sky.

"Skyfall (Tier 2) (LV: 201)"

Lu Cang wasn't just leveling up his old magic; over these past few days, he had also intentionally sought out new magic to learn.

He was improving every day.

The pristine altar instantly crumbled under the assault!

PUFF!

Before he could even finish a round of carpet bombing...

He heard the sound of spitting blood and tearing from afar.

Was it working?

That quickly?

As expected, brute force was not as effective as playing the mechanics.

But the moment after Lu Cang marveled...

BOOM!

A Heavy Wall shattered in an instant!

Following the shattering, it was the barrier blocking the Heavy Wall!

Pfft!

A beam of blood light, aimed directly at Lu Cang, came charging.

So fast!

And such immense power!

No way?

Has it gone berserk?

Damn it, I really shouldn't have messed around.

Lu Cang cursed in his heart, but his hands didn't slow down!

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!

A total of twelve Heavy Walls formed in the Passage before him, and blocking the very front were three more barriers.

Lu Cang directly canceled the Heavy Walls protecting Loth and the others, using them all to shield himself.

He had always been in a narrow Passage.

If the opponent wanted to kill him, they had to get through the Passage!

Boom!

The BOSS instantly slammed into the barrier!

Countless blood splattered everywhere!

But it also instantly shattered the three overlapping barriers!

What the hell?

Does it have that much damage?

Bang!

After the barrier shattered, the BOSS hadn't even attacked the Heavy Wall yet! Three more barriers immediately generated!

Boom!

It furiously swung its arm and smashed down!

Three more barriers shattered!

This time, its attack landed directly on the Heavy Wall!

With its powerful penetration, it consecutively shattered two walls!

But almost simultaneously, the barriers regenerated immediately!

As the barriers generated, the two Heavy Walls that had just been shattered were already repaired.

Rumble!

Earthfire, Ice Shuttle, Wind Swarm, Lightning Flash, Holy Judgment Cross, Water Whip Blade, Poison Vine Entwine – a series of magic spells rained down!

Bring it on!

If you're going to attack, then attack!

Let's see who's faster, your attack or my defense!

Lu Cang was also getting fired up.

With two God-Tier Talents, having endured for so long, couldn't he solo this thing?

If I can't solo you, who else in this world can?

His usual caution didn't mean Lu Cang lacked temper.

The reason for his caution was precisely because he wanted to lie low and develop, waiting until he was invincible. If he got cocky before developing and died, wouldn't that be a waste?

But if I've developed for so long and still can't defeat a mere little BOSS like you, haven't I been developing for nothing?

A King-tier Demonic Beast, not the pinnacle of the world.

If I can't even defeat you, who else can I defeat!

Oh, right.

I want to save them, not because of any complex reasons, but simply because I feel it's within my capabilities.

I feel I can defeat you, which is why I'm here to save them. If it were a Tier 7 or Tier 8 Dungeon, there's no way I'd step foot in it.

Ultimately, it's because I feel you can't kill me!

Lu Cang's mind suddenly cleared!

His magic spells became faster and faster!

Boom!

Boom!

BOOM!

Thunderstorm, Fire Collapse, Charge Pillar--

Explode, explode, explode, explode, explode, explode!

Blood sprayed wildly, Heavy Wall after Heavy Wall.

At the same time, a Repelling Wind Blast!

The BOSS had just taken two steps trying to break in when the storm blasted it back out again!

"Repelling Wind Blast (LV: 201)--Forced Repulsion, Knockback Magic, Wind Element Damage Increase"

After blasting it away, Lu Cang's defense line was re-established.

One person and one monster, clashing head-on like this.

However, Lu Cang's condition was perfect.

Its condition was clearly not good; it was bleeding continuously, and its size seemed to be gradually shrinking.

What kind of Mage is this?

His magic, I've never seen it before.

And why can he cast spells without incantations?

Why can he cast so much magic? Is his Magic Power infinite?!

He's even drained the blood pool dry!

Even going all out, entering a blood-rage state, still couldn't break through his defense?

The barrier...

Damn barrier, how can it generate so quickly?

That wall too!

And that wind!

After finally breaking through two walls and advancing two steps, the storm would just blast me away, making it difficult to even get close!

Giving it my all for one strike, I could only break a few layers of the barrier.

And that human child.

He just looked at me with that cold, dismissive gaze, as if I were some boring piece of trash.

I'm boring trash?

I, the Blood Origin King, am boring trash?

"I'm not trash!"

"You're trash! Human!"

"You, are trash!"

SWISH!

In the entire room, the blood splattered on the walls, scattered on the floor, and from all directions, instantly gathered towards it!

However, explosions rang out from all directions!

The storm instantly scattered all the blood being drawn in!

How could I let the enemy have their way?

Seeing that the opponent was about to unleash its full power, I definitely couldn't let it absorb blood so satisfyingly...

WHOOSH!

Ice Shuttles darted everywhere, freezing the blood.

Earthfire erupted, Fireballs exploded!

Evaporating the blood!

In any case, I just wouldn't let it absorb blood so satisfyingly.

As for whatever it was babbling about... Lu Cang wasn't interested.

It's a Demonic Beast, after all; it's normal for it to bark nonsense.

Just ignore such uninspired words.

From beginning to end.

Lu Cang remained silent.

Only the Blood Origin King roared and raged, making it look even more like an incompetent failure!

But...

Facing Lu Cang, it was truly beyond saving.

The blood pool had been completely drained by Lu Cang, leaving it with no further power, and its final burst had failed to break through Lu Cang's turtle-like defense.

Why did this Mage need such a strong defense?

Why was it so heavily armored!

It had intended to use its blood pool to drain Lu Cang's Magic Power, as he was a Mage after all.

For any Mage, Magic Power was their weakness.

What Mage had infinite Magic Power?

What Mage could continuously cast magic without stopping?

As long as it wore him down, there would come a time when his Magic Power ran out.

But until its death...

It never knew when Lu Cang's Magic Power would finally reach its limit.

Hiss!

Scorching Earthfire covered it once more.

Clang--

This time, it was the sound of armor falling to the ground.

It no longer stood tall like a King, but collapsed onto the ground, the blood that formed its body no longer coalescing, but seeping into the earth.

All that remained on the ground was the armor and a few brilliant, crystalline blood beads.

Seeing this, Lu Cang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good grief, finally killed it."

"It was really tough."

Lu Cang felt the Magic Power within him... it was still 3 million.

After this entire battle, not even a single bit of Magic Power had been depleted.

"Void Realm (LV:200)--Regenerates 10% Magic Power per second, continuously increases Magic Power cap, Magic Absorption Resistance, Self-Magic Power Generation, Higher Quality Magic Power."

Hearing him roar so loudly earlier, shouting so much.

He had thought it was some kind of undying, mechanic-based monster, but it turned out it could still die.

Lu Cang looked at the armor lying on the ground...

The Spoils of War from a King-tier Demonic Beast should be quite substantial, right?
